  • Microsoft blames Apple's interference for why the Xbox mobile store has failed to launch

    What I really want is access to game pass streaming on my devices. Native games would be good too, but especially streaming on AppleTV.

  • AirPods Max vs Sony XM6 - Over-ear headphones shootout

    xyzzy01xyzzy01
    "AirPods Max is known for active noise cancellation."
     That's stretching it a bit. The Airpods Max impressed because they were as good as the Sony WH-1000XM4 when they were launched. In 2022 Sony released the WH-1000XM5 (They really need simpler names), and the active noise cancelation there is better than the Airpods Max. If WH-1000XM6 is even better, that will just increase the distance to Apple in the rearview mirror for this specific area. 

    I've had both - I used Airpods Max until last year. There were so many issues (hangs, not found by phone/computer, getting in states where it reversed head detection etc), and I was waiting for a new version of the Airpods Max. When Apple didn't bother to update, I switched to the XM5 - and I've been happy so far. Just wish they'd support three Bluetooth units at the same time...

    So apple should spend time and money creating and running the app store and get nothing for it?
    They get a lot for it - it's a cornerstone for being the vendor of one of the two dominant, entrenched eco systems. Without the app eco system, they would make about 0 dollars on the iPhone - this is just Apple wanting to double dip for even more profits than they'd had just supplying the platform.
